COMPLETE
A/N: So, yeah I started a crossover even before finishing the other story I'm writing. I continue writing the other story; I just wanted to write this too. Of course it's after Edward left Bella in NM and approximately at Season 2 of TVD. I haven't read the vampire diaries book, so this is based on the TV series! Thank you very much! :)
Disclaimer: I don't own the rights of Twilight; they belong to great author Stephanie Meyer. I also don't own TVD series; they are developed by Kevin Williamson and Julie Plec and are based on the book series by L. J. Smith.
Chapter 1
BPOV
I rolled down my window and let the warm air wash over my face. So much time had passed since I had felt the warm air on my face or even seen the sun. In Forks you could only dream or imagine the sun. The place where we were going, was so much warmer than Forks was. Or at least that's what Charlie said, when he brought the news. I think the first question I asked him, after I accepted, was: "What's the weather like there?" Yep. That's original me. I mean, when someone said to you 'we are moving' what do you think of, first? You must have probably got lost somewhere between those lines and you're starting to question my sanity. So, let me fill you in.
FLASHBACK (about 2 days before)
I wasn't exactly communicating with the outside world. I was, most times, just talking in my head or even crying in my head, because I had shed all the tears I had in me.
I was just doing dinner for another day and waiting for Charlie to come home from work. It was our routine now. I woke up every morning, dressed, went to school, came home, prepared dinner, ate, did my homework and went to sleep. Simple as that. And then again the next day the same and the next day and the next… It was kind of boring but it was safe for me. No trouble with vampires. If you don't include that there was a possibility Victoria coming for me.
I heard the sound of tires down on the road and looked outside the window to see who it was. It was Charlie, so I started setting up the table for lunch. Charlie got in and I heard him taking off his boots and coming to the kitchen.
"Hey, Bells." He said happily and flashed me a smile. Not the usual 'try to make Bella happy and smile' smile. Some other time I wouldn't have noticed it and wouldn't talk, but he looked very suspicious. He was up to something but I didn't speak.
"Hey, Dad. How was work?" I asked.
"It was ok." He said and I let it drop.
We started eating our lasagna and I was looking at my plate twirling around the lasagnas on my plate, when I felt Dad nudging me on the shoulder.
"Huh? What happened?" I asked looking up from my plate.
"You'll give them a headache if you continue twirling them around." He said and pointed at my plate. I looked down and then back up at him, probably with the stupidest expression on my face. He looked at me with a wary expression and slowly, hesitantly even, started talking.
"You know, I have some news for you." That got my attention and I looked up. Maybe that was the reason why he was so happy before. And what's with the expression?
"Okay." I dragged the syllable out.
"Well, you see, I was asked to go to Mystic Falls for a case. There have been a lot of animal attacks and accidents lately, so they want me there. And I thought this could be a great opportunity for you, us, to move on. You have to let go, Bella. They're not coming back."
END OF FLASHBACK (present time)
I didn't accept the offer immediately. I was negative in the beginning. But then I thought 'Why not?' and said yes to Charlie. We were going to buy a house there, in Mystic Falls, so we only had to pack up our stuff and anything else we needed, we would buy from there.
Charlie said my car wouldn't make it there, and I have to say, that I was slightly offended by it, but still, the memory brings a smile to my face. So he said that I could buy a new one. I know, it was great. I was getting quite excited about the whole 'moving' thing and Charlie's smile was growing hour by hour.
So, everything was ready. We had sent our things to Mystic Falls, we had bought a house and also Charlie said that Liz Forbes, who was in Mystic Fall's Police Department, would enroll me into Mystic Fall's High School.
We made a lot of stops during the drive, most times it was day. I drove one time too, but Charlie did the most of the driving. Charlie talked, getting me out of my musings.
"There will probably be someone in the house to welcome us." He said. I smiled and turned my head away from the window, to look at him.
"Of course. Charlie Swan from the PD of Forks is coming to save you from the big scary animal." I said and laughed.
"Don't laugh at me Bells. Not your old man." He said.
"Oh, you know I'm just teasing you." I said, lightly nudging him on the shoulder.
After some hours we reached our destination. The sign 'Welcome to Mystic Falls' was the first thing we saw, before entering the town.
It was a really beautiful town, a little bigger than Forks. It was sunny but still it was a little chilly. The weather was well balanced, more than Forks of course and I liked it. When we reached our house I was dumbfounded by it. It was truly amazing. It was two stories like our house in Forks, but much bigger and more beautiful.
In the front of the house, on the pavement beside the road were a two women. The first woman, that stood to the right side,was beautiful, with a slim body and medium height. She had short straight light brown hair and as we got out of the car for introductions, I noticed she had light blue eyes. The other woman that was next to her and probably the Chief of Police here at Mystic Falls, guessing by the uniform she wore, had short, a little spiky at the ends, blonde hair and brown eyes. Charlie and I got out of the car and Charlie went to shake the woman's hand.
"Hello. I'm the Chief of police of Mystic Falls. My name's Elizabeth Forbes, but you can call me Liz. Nice to meet you." Liz said, smiling warmly at us.
"I'm Carol Lockwood. Welcome to Mystic Falls. I'm the Mayor of the town." Mrs. Lockwood said.
"I am Charlie and this is my daughter Bella. You didn't have to come here and welcome us." Charlie said and smiled at them.
"It's ok. Besides you are very important to us. You are here to help us after all." Mrs. Lockwood said. I had to get out of there. To say the truth I didn't like being with this people.
"Dad, I should go inside and start unpacking. It will take some time after all." I said turning to my Dad. I pleaded with him with my eyes, knowing he would understand. He started to say something when Mrs. Lockwood spoke.
"You could get some help here from your neighbor, across the road. Elena must be your age. She could introduce you to some of her friends." She said smiling and looked over my shoulder. She waved at someone and I turned to look who she was waving at.
The girl she was waving at must have been about my age. You could say we were kind of alike. She had long straight hair that reached her back, was thin and as she came closer, I saw she had brown eyes too. Her hair was dark brown; she had an olive skin complexion and had an athletic body, in comparison to me. My body would definitely not be described as athletic.
"Hey Liz, Mrs. Lockwood. What are you doing here?" She asked and smiled at everyone.
Mrs. Lockwood pointed at me and my Dad.
"We have the pleasure to have here Charlie Swan, with his daughter. Mr. Swan is here to help us with the animal attacks. You know Liz will be out of town, so Mr. Swan came here from Forks." She said and I thought about when Elena had a strange look on her face when Mrs. Lockwood mentioned the animal attacks. Hmm. I'll think about that later, when I'm alone.
"Well, welcome to our town. We are happy to have you here to help us." She said and again she had this strange edge in her voice. She noticed me and smiled. She put her hand out for me to shake.
"I'm Elena. Nice to meet you." She said smiling at me. I shook her hand and hesitantly smiled back at her.
"I'm Bella. Nice to meet you too." I said.
"We should go out tonight Bella. My friends will be very happy to meet you." She said. Yeah. No thanks, it's too soon. I quickly found an excuse.
"That would be great but I don't have any clothes out to wear. We still haven't unpacked." I said. It was true, but I just used it as an excuse. She shook her hand dismissively.
"That's no problem at all. I'm sure we'll find something for you to wear. I was just heading to the Grill, to meet my friends. It's place where everyone goes. We can go to my house" she pointed behind her "and find something for you. Then we can go to the Grill. It's a great opportunity." She said and grinned.
I wasn't so keen about going but I turned to ask Charlie and saw that he was talking with the major and his wife. Ok, fine. I'll go out.
"Dad, I'm going with Elena at the Grill to meet some of her friends. Is that ok?" I asked my Dad. His face lit up and he quickly nodded his head.
"Sure. But don't be late. Here. Take those keys. I'll be here. Do you want money?" at the shake of my head he continued.
"Ok then, have a good time." He said and turned to Elena.
"It was nice meeting you, Elena." He said and smiled shaking her hand. I waved at the others and together, Elena and I went across the road to her house. She pulled her phone out of her jackets pocket and dialed a number. The person from the other line picked up and started talking.
"Hey, Stefan. Yeah, I know. Sorry I'm late but I'm bringing a new friend. Yes, she's new in town. She lives across from my house and I said it would be great to meet her. Is Damon there?" At that she frowned. "Ok, ok. We'll be there in about 15-20 minutes. Bye. Love you." She said and hung up.
"Come in." She said and opened the main door.
"My room is upstairs. I think I already got in mind something for you to wear. It's going to be great." She said beaming. In the hall, where the staircase was, where pictures of Elena with other people. Some, probably, were with her parents. It seemed like a nice house.
We got upstairs and went to one of the bedrooms that where on the second floor. There seemed to be four doors, maybe guest rooms and other bedrooms. I didn't know if Elena had siblings.
Her bedroom was kind of big, surely bigger than mine was back at Forks. It had two windows, a dresser and a king sized bed. She gave me some clothes and told to go to the bathroom that was attached to the bedroom, to get ready. She promised me, that she would do my makeup, even though I was a little reluctant.
I closed the door behind me and turned to the clothes to get ready. I had to say that they were really pretty, but I have to say I'm a sweatpants person and don't like skinny jeans that much. She had given me a pair of skinny black jeans, with a simple stripped long sleeved top. I was a little afraid of her choice of shoes but decided not to complain. They were a pair of black lace up booties with wedges. To top it all off she had given me a nice black biker's jacket.
Note to self; when and if I go shopping I had to buy one of these.
Elena, I had noticed, was wearing a simple blue top with skinny blue leather pants and black ankle heel booties. She had a simple black jacket on. I went out after I was ready.
She had put on me some makeup; just a bit of eyeliner with mascara and a nude lipstick, that as she said, was looking great on me so she gave it to me, even if I had declined it. She won the battle after 5 minutes. After I was all dressed up with the clothes that Elena had given me and thanking her, shyly, for about the tenth time in the last 15 minutes, we made our way downstairs and out of the house, with me walking carefully on my platforms, not wanting to make a fool out of myself. Elena had insisted that they matched my outfit and she wanted me to make a good first impression tonight. As we started walking on the pavement towards the Mystic Grill, as Elena called it, I looked behind to our new home. And it seemed that I had already made a friend. I hope to keep it that way. I sighed. And also try to keep away the supernatural world. I could use some time to relax.
A/N: So…I hope it satisfied you. I was really anxious about this, because I had never tried to right a crossover. I know some might not like the pair Bella/Damon, as my friend doesn't like it, but I have read some Bella/Damon crossovers and I really loved it! I hope you like it! You can take a look at the outfit of Bella and Elena, as always on my Polyvore account. Link on profile! Also, I don't exactly know how time it would take to drive from Forks to Mystic Falls, so I just put something. And please leave your review! I would really appreciate it! Thanks again!
Love you all,
Kristi :D
